The man named DIN who was arrest
ed the past week for bigamy plead gull
ty to the charge before Judge Webb this

plead guilty and get light sentence
then to appear innocent and cause the
county great expense for nothing, and
finally get a severe sentence. This is
surely a strong recommend for the
present district attorney who tries to
save the county expense on every
case.
